"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again; Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus..."
Philippians 4:4-7
the Lord knows our hearts so intimately. He hears our cries and He leads us.. mm oh the mysteries of His love..I thank God for sisters like these...inviting us in the middle of the night..in our greatest time of need..to listen, share, pray, and worship our Lord. and in the end.. together, realizing how faithful and GREAT Our God is!

mmm...i still remember lighting up the candles in the dim snowy night. through the whispers of the soft snowfall...the candles glowing so warmly and peacefully. a reflection of God's love and peace. oh the beauty of the blazing fire...the sweet, soft fragrance of His love penetrating deep within our hearts. receiving His peace..a peace like no other, a peace so intimate, a peace that transcends all understanding...
"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."
John 14:27
~~~
at the foot of the cross
where grace and suffering meet...
you have shown me your love
through the judgment you received
and you've won my heart...
now i can,
trade these ashes in for beauty
and wear forgiveness like a crown.
coming to kiss the feet of mercy
i lay every burden down
at the foot of the cross....
and you've won my heart...
